The Leapfrogs is situated in the Wanneroo Botanic Gardens on the shores of Lake Joondalup. Dutch born Theo and Hanneke Puik commenced work on the site in 1974, aspiring to turn the two hectares of sandy scrubland into a magical mini-golf garden. Officially opening in 1981, it quickly became a successful tourism icon in the region, however, tea and bikkies were not enough, it lacked the delicious food and beer Leapfrogs’ guests enjoy today.

In 1995 Paul and Nicole Woodcock, daughter and son-in-law of Theo and Hanneke, purchased the business and set about solving this dilemma with the development of Leapfrogs Coffee House & Bar.

Open since 1998, it has continued to evolve into an eclectic garden venue offering fresh, tasty, honest food, locally-roasted coffee, craft beers, chai and great wines in an unbeatable atmosphere.

In recent years Mark Gill, former head chef of Little Creatures Fremantle, and his wife Karin have joined with Paul and Nicole, becoming part-owners and taking over the daily management. Their passion for people and philosophy of high quality, simple fresh produce is making Leapfrogs the biggest little busy place around.

It’s much nicer than a pub … and kinda like a restaurant … but simply a great place to stop, eat, drink and make friends. To make a booking give them a call on (08) 9206 4077 and they look forward to seeing you soon.

About Perth Cafes

Welcome to PerthCafes.com.au a new website focused on the best cafes in beautiful Perth. Perth’s cafes have come a long way since I arrived in WA in 1988 when a salad was a piece of lettuce with sliced tomato and some mayonnaise out of a bottle from the supermarket. It’s been a wonderful foodie revolution around Australia this last quarter of a century.

Social Media

Social media has been massively adoptive of food culture to a point that’s almost embarrassing. The cliche of instagramming one’s lunch continues unabated and it’s this collective spirit which now enables cafe, restaurant & bar owners to connect with their fans and foodies in a new spirit.

We and our social media friends will promote you on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Linked In, Path, WeChat, and on this foodie website along with a growing number of others, in exchange for your co-operation & loyalty to the collective foodie good.
